March 26th, 2010

RandomK(e) from Beijing is celebrating their fifth anniversary this Saturday at 2Kolegas. M.E. Seeley here expounds on why we should listen to RamdomK(e), if you still haven’t done it. And, if you are in Beijing, then we’re jealous for that gig.

No Lumps of Coal at YuYinTang on Christmas

January 14th, 2010

We are happy to tell you Mr. M.E. Seeley is back in town, and back on Layabozi. This is his “back in the game” piece about two sweet bands that rocked YuYinTang on Christmas day: Yu Guo and Cigarette Butts. Read about them, while listening to their music…

M. E. Seeley

April 5th, 2009

1. The first tune you loved I used to be a huge Doors fan—had Morrison’s books of poetry, read a couple of biographies, had all of the albums—and I loved that song “Cars Hiss By The Window.” It took me a while before I gave up thinking I was the reincarnation of Jim Morrison himself [...]

A Walk Through A Garden

March 21st, 2009

Miyadudu’s latest album is a stroll along the sunlit path strewn with kittens, fallen stars, and specters of lost love, an aural representation of these past eight years of LinDi’s life.
